Top 100 Music Albums of 2021
by

2021 has proven itself to be a bit more impressive than 2020 while also maybe demonstrating a broad trend of returning to the fundamentals of songwriting that pre-covid was sort of being smashed open (not to say experimental things aren't happening, they're just being renegotiated by the conditions of production).

7.5/10
Spirit of the Beehive kinda started as a heavier band but I remember feeling that the deerhunter influence was maybe worn too obviously on earlier EPs. Hypnic Jerks was a good suggestion that they had found their thing but the album came across a bit vacuous and the mix was really muted and flat. Entertainment, Death is the first project I was really wowed by and I have gone back to it a lot since it came out.
